Biding my time and enjoying my gifts
*lol* If I hadn't popped the wrong button just now, the title of this post would have been "enjoying my gofts" It has an intriuging sound to it, though, doesn't it??
I'm so enjoying my electric teapot I received from C, my Goddessdaughter , for Yule. It's so good for me to drink more herbal tea and less coffee. And silly as it sounds, I'm so much more likely to push a button than light the stove. As for the microwave...NOT suitable for tea at all, IMO. I'm weaning myself from the coffee addiction, so I need to drink a lil caffeine in the evening, but in a few days I'll be done with evening caffeine. Then maybe I'll find it easier to get my sleep routine back on track.
I've started a few new journals with the hope of making some money at BLOGGING. Well, maybe not so much to make money now, (although it would be nice to make a lil extra), but more thinking that it will help me BLOG regularly, and therein improve my writing habits and skills. I am serious about gearing up for NaNoWriMo this year, and knowing me, I'll need to stay focused or Nov. will come around again and I'll be saying, "oops", one more time.
Maybe this will get me back on track with my novel. I still want to write it, but I have this feeling that I need to write something else before returning to that first 30,000 words. I don't think I've outgrown the story, and I still feel it's a story I need to tell, but I'm not sure that it's supposed to go the direction I had it heading when I got stuck. Hmmmm. Maybe that's why I got stuck!!
So biding time until tomorrow with this tooth. Strange, but it hasn't flared up yet, today (Knock on wood). Of course, my back and hips are screaming from staying in bed yesterday. But I'm moving around a bit today, to keep them stretched out. That should help.
F and A are home from LV after A's accident. They're off to the hospital for some more tests for A, today. My Love is laying tile today. She's very happy to have a break from the trim and drywall. And I'm sure she's excited to use her new tilesaw, I sure would be!! Speaking of tile, I really need to get the kitchen counter finished. Maybe.... well, we'll see. I'm not going to put that on the schedule right now. She installed a couple of doors and a set of french doors for B this last weekend, so I didn't get to see much of her, but she sure made some good money doing it! It was a good break, anyway. I think it's important for lovers to miss each other once in awhile.
I'm so excited about the Body Art Expo this weekend. I'm only slightly less excited to have discovered that my artist, Judy Parker, isn't going to be there. So, poor me, no work on my back. Still, I'm thinking about seeing if I can get some work from Black Wave. I'm doing my left arm in black linework, not big thick tribal shapes, more like mehendi designs. I am thinking to see if Su'a Sulu'ape FreeWind will do a spiral on my elbow. If it doesn't cost too much. I was planning to spend $300 or so for a sitting on my phoenix, but I need a few supplies, so maybe I can spend a little less on ink. Still, I really want some new ink, and think it would be very awesome to be tapped. Very spiritual. Time to move around a bit; I'm getting stiff from sitting.
